Simply be yourself, as if, it was possible, at least bite into it!
A very unfiltered week 😅
Family, motherhood, exhaustion, admin overload, cooking for 14, missing Paris and my daughter, artist life, Glow!, New Mexico dreams, unexpected gifts from another artist… and somehow making the Top 15 of The People’s Artist competition 🤍
A little journal entry!
This week: life in motion, and a moment that matters—
“Wow! You Are Amazing!” was acquired at The Bass Museum of Art by a collector it truly resonated with.
Exactly where it was meant to be.
A week balancing art, family, community, and reflection — from honoring women’s legacy in Coconut Grove to preparing upcoming artist talks at MIFA. As Women’s Month begins, this moment feels like a reminder that art and humanity remain deeply connected.
From planes to galleries, school runs to solo shows, and Amsterdam to Miami to Las Vegas — a behind-the-scenes glimpse into life in motion. Between art, motherhood, community work, and personal growth, this post celebrates the beautiful chaos, the invisible reality behind creative success, and the courage it takes to trust your path while juggling ambition, family, and heart. 🤍✈️🎨
A week lived at full speed—long days, full responsibility, and the need to pause and recover—unfolds alongside major professional milestones and a world in turmoil. This reflection moves between the intimate and the global, celebrating resilience, faith, and quiet courage, while embracing the idea that growth, like art and life, takes time, care, and patience.
Our first Miami Give 5K was unforgettable: 11 runners, 1 supporter, and a first-place win for our Unchained Mothering Ambassador. This powerful moment opens our call to support the work we do all year to make mothers and their invisible contributions seen.
Artist Jessica de Vreeze explores how art uplifts and connects us — how friends hot yoga and 5 K can uplift and invites you to join Unchained Mothering’s 5K Walk for empowerment and community.
Amid chaos, love and perspective lead the way — and this week, 3 milestones: my husband ran the Berlin Marathon and completed the 6 majors, an article was published and my work Keep on Dancing enters the Coral Gables Museum’s permanent collection.
Life has a way of repeating the same lesson until we finally slow down and listen. ✨
These past weeks reminded me: even in a world full of heaviness, we can’t let darkness steal our light. Let go of what’s non-essential, give yourself grace, and hold on to the joy that keeps us moving forward.
With love,
Jess 🌸
